- a two bedroom £ecohouse£ in the village of Scapegoat Hill. - the north and east elevations are locally sourced grit stone and provide the building with thermal mass - the south and west, garden elevations, are timber frame and cladding with high levels of insulation. - the south and west elevations are provided with high proportions of glazing to capture solar heat gain in the winter which will help to heat the house. these windows are provided with external solar blinds to avoid excessive solar gain in the summer - the building is provided with grey water harvesting, solar panels, passivent ventilation system and wood burning stove. - the building lies on a level change between the garden and the road, the plan uses the half level change to provide the house with a sense of opening out towards the garden.
